No. 467201 BEFORE: Easterly, Associate Judge, and Farrell and Ruiz, Senior Judges. ORDER (FILED – November 15, 2018) On consideration of the certified order from the Court of Appeals of Maryland disbarring respondent from the practice of law; this court’s September 25, 2018, order suspending respondent pending resolution of this matter and directing her to show cause why reciprocal discipline should not be imposed; the response thereto; the statement of Disciplinary Counsel; and respondent’s D.C. Bar R. XI, §14 (g) affidavit filed October 24, 2018, it is ORDERED that Jeneba J. Ghatt is hereby disbarred from the practice of law in the District of Columbia, nunc pro tunc to October 24, 2018.
